I have been driven by many different things over the years, but all of those things have been self-interest, reward, or fear based. For instant taking religion and going to church. I was driven by fear. The fear of, if I didn’t go to church and become saved something bad would happen to me. What’s strange about that whole situation is, my grandmother once wrote a song and the lyrics were; “Everybody want to go to heaven, but don’t nobody want to die”. My question then became if heaven was as beautiful and peaceful as depicted, why is it that no one wants to die and go? That drive faded when I left home. Then came the drive to survive, which also was fear based and changed after I seen how hard it was to stay afloat, maintain a job and live life, to finding the easiest way to survive. Still it wasn’t for the “greater good” per se. It was self-interest based. What didn’t make sense to me was, how could I possibly have a job, work all my life why’ll in the process get married have a family, take scheduled breaks/holidays and enjoy it. I’ve seen that growing up and it wasn’t something that I saw myself doing.

What drives me? I am driven by the fact that I don’t know who I am and the want to learn who I am, what I have become and how to correct myself to become who I am as life. For the first time in my life I am taking responsibility for myself and it isn’t easy. I know that it’s a process, so I maintain my drive and push through whatever comes up to become who I am as life.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to be driven by many things over the years, all being self-interest, reward or fear based.

I commit myself to taking responsibility for myself and no longer making things harder on myself.

In my relationships, I have a tendency to point out others flaws, telling them what they need to do in their lives instead of taking responsibility for myself. That’s how I would separate myself from them and leave a backdoor open to opt out. Meaning, I use their flaws against them as justification for me to end a relationship, leave or win an argument. Each time my relationship was failing, I would blame it on the other person and try to control the situations as they came up by, pointing out their flaws and tell them what they shouldn’t or should have done, which was me taking myself out of the equation as being part of the problem; not realizing that I was at least 50% of the problem every time. So within this,

Why do I get frustrated when I can’t figure things out? This is a question that I ask myself. It is because I am not accepting and allowing myself to slow myself down, stop my mind and pay attention to what I am doing. As far back as I can remember I have followed the pattern of wanting to hurry up and finish things. When I couldn’t figure it out, I get frustrated and give up if it didn’t have to do with things like school work. Sometimes I would go into self-pity or self- victimization telling myself thing like; I’m stupid and nobody care about me. Back then I didn’t know about the mind, how it operates and using breath in every moment to slow myself down, although I was told sometimes to stop and breathe, but immediately after the breath, I would continue to hurry. We was brainwashed into believing “a mind is a terrible thing to waste”. It was posted around the school, on billboards and walls. I have conditioned myself to, if something comes up that I can’t figure out, I bypass it and move on. As a result I left a lot of things undone.

I have been one who has stayed within the limitations of what I thought I knew. Anyone that was against what I thought I knew was deemed as blind or lost. (That is until I found Desteni) I would go around playing the neutral role and spreading messages of positivity, chanting slogans like, “Put your hand in front of your face and imagine it being a mirror and when you look in it, you know what you see”, they would say “what”, then I would say; “You see me because I’m you”. I didn’t even know what it meant, but it sounded cool to me so I used it. It’s like being placed under a table and telling myself, if I go out something bad would happen. In my case I thought, if I didn’t play the neutral role and spread positive messages, I wouldn’t be accepted so I became that character. Another is doing thing a certain way, leaving no room for improvement. If someone came to me and showed me an easier/simpler way of doing it, I would make up and excuse to why I like doing things my way, like; “It gives me a workout” or “I like taking my time with it”, when in fact I just got use with the limitations that I’ve placed on myself.

Regarding the point of reacting to not being able to do something that you wrote about in your previous blog, this is something that I've also experienced extensively and I found that this interview from Eqafe was 'spot on' in explaining why and how that experience is created.

We often add on (make up) things when in conversation with others, even when our point has already been taken in and agreed upon by the other person. We somehow think that we need to insinuate the point to make ourselves seem more than what we are. What we don’t realize is, once we start to insinuate the point, it makes it invalid. And the other person can see it. That’s when a moment of self-honesty becomes self-dishonest. When the conversation starts, we tell ourselves to keep it simple, then when we have their total attention, our ego sets in and sabotage what we’re saying. After we walk away we ask ourselves; “Why did I just do that”? Then comes the internal conversations that runs in our mind in justification to ourselves what have we done and why have we done it.

There is a pattern that I have of saying no when I really mean yes. We can be in a conversation with others and while the other person is explaining their view on whatever the discussion is about, we tend to interject saying; “No but” then stating our view about the point which for the most part is the same as the other persons. What we mean to say is “Yes I agree and” but we naturally say “No”. Another example is; we say “No” when we don’t want to face something out of fear. Like; “No I don’t want to see or hear that”. The fear of facing ourselves and taking responsibility for what we have accepted and allowed as our world and reality. I see it as, we have gotten so use to using the word “No” in spitefulness that it has become our Yes. In most cases it’s hard to differentiate whether we mean “Yes” or “No”, and when questioned about it, we say; “No I mean Yes”. This shows that we have No idea of how to respond to others when having a conversation, in fact because we have never been self-honest with ourselves enough to say what we really mean, but instead all of our conversations have been based off of knowledge and information, which we don’t express and live by.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to create and follow a pattern of saying no when I really mean Yes.

I have been one who thought I knew everything, but the things I thought I knew I didn’t live by. It was easy for me to break down others problems and tell them what they needed to do in their lives, but when it came to my problems, I didn’t practice what I preached so to speak. I was living my life as a “positive” person with my own rules. In my life if a problem came up I would tell myself to “stay positive” as if the problem would somehow vanish/disappear in thin air and when it didn’t I would react energetically with anger. So what I thought I knew wasn’t worth knowing and what I lived by wasn’t worth living for. Meaning, I wasn’t living at all. I was following the pattern I created for myself of; speaking what I thought I knew but living by something different.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to think I know everything, and not live by what I thought I knew.

Throughout my life, if I was ever asked the question; do you trust yourself? I would answer, “Yes”. I believed that I was in control and nobody could tell me anything different. I trusted myself in thinking I was making sound decisions. I have separated me from myself by making things all about me. Others weren’t in the equation unless my staring point with them was self-interested based. I would tell myself that I can’t trust them. I would say things like; “Let me think about that and “get back” at you”, and trust that I would make the “right” decision. By having to think and “get back” at someone shows that I couldn’t trust myself. Whenever I fear anything, I can’t trust myself. When I walk in the house and lock the door behind me. I can’t trust myself. Whenever I second guess myself, I can’t trust myself. Not acknowledging others when I walk by, Is me not trusting myself. Not being able to express myself in the moment is me not trusting myself. Having a conversation with myself about a conversation that I’ve had with others, is me not trusting myself. Doing something for myself and asking the question; “What do you think about what “I’ve” done”, and expecting praise, is me not trusting in my own expression. So in fact I didn’t trust myself. I trusted and gave my power away to my mind, believing that that’s who I am.
